Chapter 38: You Look Truly Pathetic in Your Impotent Rage

Page (1/3)

Yun Chuxia was still wondering when she heard Uncle Liu ask respectfully, “Shall I ram into it?”

Yun Chuxia: “...”

What a reckless man.

Was even Si Yuchuan’s driver unafraid of Si Haochen?

Or had Si Yuchuan specifically instructed him to do this?

She signaled for Uncle Liu to pull over. She did not want an accident during rush hour to inconvenience all the other wage earners on their way to work.

Si Haochen leaned against a blue Bentley Continental, cupping the cigarette between his fingers as he lit it. Smoke curled upward, making his expression difficult to read.

Yun Chuxia was wearing jeans and a cropped, light-beige knit top. Her tall, striking figure drew the eye, and her exceptionally proportioned waist and hips lent even the simple outfit a hint of sensuality.

Her hair was loosely twisted into a bun. Unlike the carefully finished makeup and styling she had worn during their previous two encounters, her fresh, bare-faced appearance was much closer to the woman he remembered.

Si Haochen slowly exhaled a mouthful of smoke, staring fixedly at her as she stepped out of his uncle’s car, his expression displeased.

Yun Chuxia stopped a few paces away. After confirming that she was standing upwind and would not be bothered by the secondhand smoke, she asked, “What do you want?”

Si Haochen’s brows drew together almost imperceptibly. Yun Chuxia was unwilling even to come closer to him. She truly was far too disobedient.

After leaving the private room last night, he had been in a foul mood and smoked several cigarettes in the car. Su Muxue, sitting in the passenger seat, had coughed from the smoke without a single complaint, merely looking at him with reddened eyes.

He had only kissed her because he had softened for a moment and lost control of himself.

Comments:

[It looks like the male and female leads had a kissing scene last night.]

[Kissing the heroine at night and blocking the supporting female lead in the morning. What a scumbag.]

[Was the main storyline really that explicit? We spent the whole night watching empty shots over here.]

[The moment the male lead leaned in, the scene turned into a streetlamp.]

[We got the moon instead—sob, sob. The censorship is way too strict.]

Seeing the comments, Yun Chuxia felt somewhat relieved. Otherwise, who would want every moment of their life livestreamed twenty-four hours a day?

With the cigarette caught between his strong, sinewy fingers and one hand in his pocket, Si Haochen asked, “Are you living with my uncle?”

He had blocked the road between Yunlu Villa and Jiutian first thing in the morning simply to confirm his suspicion. He had not expected his uncle to have Uncle Liu personally drive her to work.

Uncle Liu might call himself a driver, but he was actually highly skilled—capable of taking on two bodyguards by himself. Was his uncle really so worried about her, so determined to protect her?

Ignoring the emotions shifting in his eyes, Yun Chuxia replied coldly, “So what if I am? It has nothing to do with you.”

Si Haochen took several steps toward her. “Since you were capable of using underhanded tricks to get into my uncle’s bed, why were you pretending to be some virtuous, chaste woman in front of me the other day?”

Yun Chuxia did not waste words. She raised her hand and slapped him across the face.

Smack—

Uncle Liu immediately moved to Yun Chuxia’s side, both fists clenched as he prepared to fight.

Si Haochen had no doubt that if he dared lay a finger on Yun Chuxia, Uncle Liu would kick him flying at once.

His uncle’s people had never listened to him.

Still, until he made the first move, they would never dare attack him unprovoked.

Covering his cheek, Si Haochen could do nothing but glare at Yun Chuxia. “Do you really think my uncle could ever love you? What kind of woman could he not have? You’re nothing more than leftovers from my bed.”

He was simply too furious to accept it. Since she was willing to be kept as a canary, would she not have been better off staying with him than following his uncle?

After all, the two of them had shared three years together.

Yun Chuxia raised her hand again, and Si Haochen instinctively drew his neck back.

How had he never realized before that this woman had such a powerful slap?

Yun Chuxia gave a cold laugh and lowered her hand, her eyes filled with contempt.

“Si Haochen, the way you rage helplessly is truly pathetic.”
